Restriction of Grain Shipments Uas Bearish

market as a whole ranging from one cent
decline to advance, compared with yes
terday's finish. Oats lost Id to 14 0 net,

I'ntil the last hour of trading, th corn
market reflected considers ie uncertainty
a to the significance of different govern
ment orders affecting transportation. At
first the tendency of price was down grade
owing to inferences that the ban on rail
shipments of corn and oats eastward trom
Chicago would result In th massing ot
stocks here and at other 'leading weatern
terminals, Later, such an assumption
seemed temporarily to be open to question
on account ot Instructions that all the rail
roads In th United States were to give food
and teed priority over military supplies.
Toward th end of the day however, any
doubts of the complete enforcement of the
embargo disappeared and prices accordingly
tell. Oats duplicated th action of corn.
